Map Ohio

Ohio map
This Midwestern map of Ohio displays major cities, traffic routes, and some of the main points of interest. Ohio is known for its rolling hills, covered bridges, wilderness and historic houses. It is the 34th largest state by land area, and 7th and 10th most populous state in the United States. The name Ohio is taken from the word of the American Indians, ohi-yo, meaning 'great river'. The bang nickname is 'Bang Buckeye' for its distinct Buckeye trees.
Back to Ohio
Also known as the 'State of Buckeye', Ohio is the 17th State that joined the Union on March 1, 1803. The state's name is derived from an Iroquois word 'Ohi-Yo', meaning Great River or Lach. Big. Ohio people are also known as Buckeyes, because the state has a lot of red-eyed trees. The capital of Ohio and the state's largest city are Columbus, while the largest municipalities in the state are Cleveland and Cincinnati.
History of Ohio
Archaeological evidence shows that humans have lived in parts of Ohio since 13,000 BC. From 1000 BC to 800 BC, semi-permanent villages were established throughout the Ohio Valley. In 1650, the Iroquois Indians lived in the areas between the Ohio River and the Great Lake.
The area was claimed by the French in the 18th century, who set up trading stations in the area to control the booming fur trade in the area. After the 1754 French and Indian War, British colonies followed. At the end of the American Revolution, the British ceded control of their region to the developing United States.
Ohio was then included in the Great Northwest Territory. The district finally received state status on March 1, 1803, but it was never formally declared. It was not until 1953 that President Dwight Eisenhower officially signed the original documents before the official declaration was made.
Geography of Ohio
Ohio is located in the Midwestern region of the United States. It is bordered by Ontario, Canada to the north, Michigan to the northwest, Pennsylvania to the east, Indiana to the west, Kentucky to the south, and Virginia to the southeast.
The Ohio River defines the state's southern border, while much of the northern border is defined by Lake Erie. The state has icy plains and low mountain peaks. Ohio's highest peak is Campbell Hill at 1,539 feet.
Tourist destinations in Ohio
Ohio is a treasure trove filled with little boxes, each with a hidden joy waiting to be experienced. Enabling a four-season outdoor experience, the state welcomes visitors with a proud Midwest culture. From fern-filled valleys to the foothills of the Appalachian hill, the 'Bang Buckeye' unlocks your senses.
Comprising of 16 roller coaster and 72 roller coaster, Cedar Point in Sandusky, is one of the most popular amusement parks in America. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, a pilgrimage site for many music enthusiasts, exhibits exhibitions and collections of the most influential musicians of all time. The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium has more than 7,000 species of animals representing more than 800 species.
State Park Hocking Hills is a rugged natural area known for its camping facilities and hiking trails. Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park, Franklin Park Conservatory, Great Lakes Science Center and Cincinnati Museum Center are other prominent attractions in Ohio.
